Comments Diving was its normal great staff and the dive team was exceptional. While the service at the resort was quite good, it was clear that the owner was cutting back on costs. The rooms needed upgrading and there were various things that had been cut back (like the afternoon after-dive snack!). It was sort of clear that they were hurting financially. That being said, we still enjoyed our time there.

Sadly, the pandemic did them in. From what I understand, the resort has closed and is currently on the market. I wish their team all the best. We always had such a wonderful time there and the staff did a fantastic job. We were sad to hear that KBR is no more.
